CORAL69510 Flex 3-in-1 Wallpaper Tool, White, Flexible

JUST WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR

My first tool when I started 12 years ago, still the best one I have ever used.Couldn't find it to buy anywhere for years, thank God it's back again.

I install 54 inch commercial wallcovering & a heavier stiffer smoother is better then the smaller thinner white smoother .

si, es bueno, platico resistente

These are perfect for hanging commercial wall coverings

Me gusta mucho, és el mejor para empapelar papel pintado

I had a smoothing brush for years and which I loved and could only use that particular brush when papering; however, I made the mistake of lending it out to a family member for it to never be seen again!I have been converted – being hard plastic I had wondered just how good it could be but I was actually excited to have discovered it! It is so much more than just a piece of plastic.I searched for a new brush similar which I could not find and this wallpaper tool was showing in the searches. I didn't realise anything like this existed but I liked the sound of it seeing that it was multipurpose and can be used as a straight edge too! Whereas I would normally have a separate ruler to use as a straight edge, this was not needed – even going down and around door frames it was so easy to cut straight edges.I hung two types of paper and both were ‘paste the wall’ type – one smooth and the other a fresco and although being careful – which was common sense to me that being hard plastic, it could damage the paper. I can honestly say that it didn’t cause any damage at all – in fact, I got through the job in quick time because not only was it great for smoothing the paper onto the wall, when it came to using as straight edge, it came into its own; particularly around light switches and sockets – not only a great straight edge but also perfect for tucking the paper edges behind the switch – so neat and tidy.The smoothing was great –had to be careful not to tear the paper and it did a great job BUT, when using it around the edges, it made life so much simpler. As long as you keep the tool in the same position as you go along and the knife the same position too…you will have consistent straight lines.(I actually purchased the knife that was recommended on this tool and it absolutely made a perfect team – the knife was far better than any other I had used in that it was super sharp and made amazingly straight cuts and the blades didn’t bend either which I have found on regular adjustable Stanley blades).When I purchased this tool, it was £4.95 but has since been reduced to currently £3.99 which makes it excellent value.Like me, if you have never used this kind of paper hanging tool before and was afraid to do so – bite the bullet and give it a go as it made papering so much more simple and quicker. The only tip is to not rush the process of smoothing as this will help prevent accidental tearing.I can’t recommend this tool enough!

This is a great tool. Done wallpapering a few times and had a Harris wallpaper brush for smoothing and edging the paper but didn't seem to work very well. Spotted this and for the price thought I would give it a go even though just looks like a piece of plastic... It is! but it's excellent for smoothing out wallpaper and getting the bubbles of excess paste out from from under the paper when applied to the wall. I liked that it did not mark the paper at all and sometimes when the paper tended to crease running over it with this allowed me to smooth the small creases out. I found it useful to keep wetting the tool so it glides smoothly over the wallpaper. When buying I thought it was going to be too small but on reflection after use it's a perfect size. Great for getting paper into corners and neat into skirting etc to get a line on paper for cutting too. Would highly recommend, now one of my must have decorating tools.

Great gadget

Used for the first time as I normally use a brush found it easy to use and I would recommend this product
